Comment by Miguel Afonso on August 18, 2011 at 7:36pm: Passion fruit are notoriously productive

Comment by Kobus Jooste on August 18, 2011 at 3:31pm: depends on how many other plants in the system :). When it comes to production data, I am weary of non-scientific sources because their claims cannot be scrutinised in a way I am used to. The production results of Savidov and Rakocy are some of the few that were based on scientific principles, but can only be applied to systems that operate in a similar fashion. I just pulled over 100 passion fruit off a vine that has been going for one season. That is just one vine, one season, one system configuration. We are still very far off detailed yield results for all types of AP systems. I've seen the 100 pounds of tomato per plant claim before as well.

Comment by Miguel Afonso on August 18, 2011 at 2:05pm: Would I be exagerating if I said an average of 100 pounds of tomatoes per year per indeterminate plant?

Comment by Miguel Afonso on August 18, 2011 at 12:40pm: What would you say the average yield (lbs) of tomatoes per plant is per year?
